Blue Origin, a private aerospace company owned by Jeff Bezos, has come up with a technology that uses simulated Moon regolith to make solar cells and transmission wires. The resulting solar cells are claimed to survive the "harsh lunar environment" and last over a decade. Interestingly, the process involves zero carbon emissions, no water, and no toxic chemicals.
